The curved display is one of the main highlights of this phone as it features 120Hz refresh rate with a fluid Amoled screen. “The 8 Pro is also one of the first smartphones able to display 1 billion colors using a 30-bit panel.”

Special OS Features

Real time wallpapers– Live Wallpapers now connect to the OnePlus Weather app, subtly changing hues according to real-time weather conditions.

Dual-channel network acceleration – This feature speeds up your downloads through the simultaneous support of WLAN and mobile networks.

Personal opinion

Although the phone is great with new features, but some of them are useless. For example 5g is not expected to come to India atleast for 2 years, so why would you be paying more for a feature which you don’t require at present. So my suggestion for indian users is that to go for OnePlus 7T pro or 7pro, which are still great in performance and OnePlus is offering huge discounts on these models.
